FAQ
Short answers about Beltworks. For longer walkthroughs, see Guides.
What is Beltworks?
Beltworks is an unofficial community site for browsing, searching, and sharing Factorio blueprints. It is not affiliated with Wube Software.
Where does the catalog come from?
Many designs were imported from the public FactorioPrints / Factorio School archive so they remain searchable in one place, with links back to the originals. Community members can also upload native blueprints directly to Beltworks.
How do I use a blueprint in Factorio?
Open the print page, copy the string, then import it from Factorio’s blueprint library. See our guide: How to import a blueprint string into Factorio.
Do I need an account?
Browsing and copying blueprints does not require an account. Sign in to favorite prints, build a collection, or upload your own designs.
Can I request removal of content?
Yes. If you are the author of an imported design and want it hidden or removed, email hello@belt-works.com with the print URL and proof of authorship. We also moderate spam and policy-violating listings.
Does Beltworks show ads?
We may show Google AdSense ads to help host the archive. Ads are separate from gameplay content. See Privacy for how advertising and analytics partners process data.
